The Kingdom of God is Near
July 2025
Dear Friends,
In the gospels, the message of Jesus is summed up in the phrase ‘The kingdom of God is near.’ This is the truth that was passed on to him by John the Baptist, and that Jesus passed on to his disciples.
The ‘kingdom of God’ signifies any place where the will of God, and his purpose for us, is being put into practice, and where God’s promised future becomes real in the present. And ever since the human life of Jesus, the way has been open for this to be ‘near’, to be close at hand, within our reach and our grasp.
But there is always the danger that we may slip into assuming that God can only be found within certain aspects of life - the things that we tend to label as ‘religious’. But if we do that we will miss so much.
All of life belongs to God, and so we may meet God, and discover how we can be transformed, through any aspect of our lives. All that we need to do is to be ready, to recognise and respond to the ways in which God is at work in our lives and our world.
Revd John Waller
